Hello. Skadden is the name of the law firm representing Crytek in their suit against Cloud Imperium Games. Skadden Freude is meant to be a play on words of the French term Skaddenfood, meaning to make an enemy defeated in war eat the poo poo out of your rear end.

Wouldn't yanking code that was created by Amazon specifically for lumberyard and putting it back into Cryengine be copyright infringement. Lumberyard isn't GPL/GNU/Whatever other licenses that allows you to use code from it.

I mean you have stated outside of license changes, they are still using Cryengine.

They are not using CryEngine pure any more. Neither is Amazon.

Star Engine (custom) = CE + bullshit hacks

Lumberyard (custom) = CE + advancements

This is precisely why I had stated that those clowns couldn't have switched their custom code from CE to LY in "a matter of days", and that they LIED about it.

A few people have, yes. It's a point that pops up every few months to test the called it waters before sliding back down to sleep.

The theory is consistent with CIG's track records of burning every company it works with. Turbulent has also been their go to fall guy for wild accidental typos on ship pages during sales that get corrected a day or two after the initial gold rush. Turbulent must be really bad as it's happened about fifteen times.

The juice in the Turbulent theory is the notion that they know exactly where all of the bodies are buried and have all of the charts and graphs showing where the murders have been, are and will be happening in the future.

But I doubt Turbulent will do anything that might hurt its ability to form relationships with other companies just because CIG is foundering.

Yeah, I have no reason to believe that CIG is going to mess with Turbulent to the point of being sued by them. As long as they are not sued, Turbulent can't do anything due to NDA. But yeah, they know things.

Fair do, then. I'll stop splitting my replies out of respect.

To take a tangent, has anyone checked Freyermuth's court record? I can find a Reed Freyermuth, who appears to have credit issues, but not Ortwin Sam Freyermuth.

Yeah, you can see my quandary; I'm completely unable to see your thoughts and work with the paperwork. At the moment _I know_ that Paracorp was primary, but they're not Counsel. There's also the second string that you could be lying, but I'm going to believe that you have the details and won't burn your sources.

Not sure what any of that means. The registered agent was served. Which in every state is a valid service. Who said they were counsel? I certainly didn't because I was the one who broke the news about their attorneys even before the lawsuit was publicly live.

e.g. my registered agents are CSC. If my company is going to get sued, they're not going to come to my office to do it. They will serve it on CSC, who then notify me.

He's an idiot. That's why he's blocked.

We've been talking about it on my Discord this whole year. I never divulged it because I was told NOT to. I don't, never have, never will burn sources for lols.

e.g. I knew why (Ortwin had a flimsy waiver) they did the amendment. Though I mentioned it on Discord and in my Twitter feed, I didn't expand on it until the amendment was filed.

Also, I know the name of the law firm they hired but I had refrained from saying anything because I was waiting for it to be public via their response yesterday. Now that it's been delayed another 14 days, I was waiting for the OK to share the info. And once I get it, I will - long before it becomes public via their filed response.

When the talks broke down, and knew they were going to file, I didn't have the OK to say anything.

When it was filed - and before it even appeared on PACER, I still didn't have permission to say anything until it was SERVED. Which is why my thread on it started this way on Dec 13th - the day it was served.

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/940947796794003457

And the hints in those first Tweets were because due to time difference, I STILL didn't have the OK to say anything - and I couldn't. The PACER listing didn't appear until the night of Dec 12th.
